The latest order # I see in this thread is 3064 so if they are sequential it must be at least 644 units.

I have order Nr. 2511, and so far no shipping confirmation...

My intention is to read my e-mail every 30 minutes, till i get this confirmation...

And I'm burning with jealousy for each and every one of them!

My Order ID is 3162, ordered on 29/10 10:57pm... still no shipping

2714 and I haven't heard anything yet from Bookeen. Their website still says mine's shipping today, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I'm in the same situation but since it is already Saturday morning in Paris we might be waiting a while to hear. On the other hand it is supposed to rain all day Saturday in Paris so maybe the Bookeen folks will go in to the office and pack shipments :-)

Frankly I ordered mine after the Dec 5th message was posted on the Bookeen site so I'll take anything I can get!

I gave in and ordered mine today, with an order #4198 - so it looks like they may be moving up fast.

I know. But with al the traffic jams on the A10 it takes longer to go from Schiphol Airport to Amsterdam than to Rotterdam. It is only a 45 minutes drive from Schiphol to my home. The frustrating part of course is that they fly over my home. At one point or another it will be only about 1 km from here. Now they take a more difficult route. First from Schiphol to Amsterdam and than back to Schiphol to go to Rotterdam. They should fly on Zestienhoven. They can drop the package at my home in 30 minutes on the way to your home. The main advantage of course will be that I get the G3 about 6 hours sooner

I see from the FedEx tracking page that mine's now got as far as the FedEx depot in Paris...

Bookeen possibly just decided to not hire extra help for the 'pioneer' fase since of course this boom time will soon settle down and you don't want too many people on staff when sales are slower... the fact that they're out of products so soon indicates that they either did not see this coming (unlikely) or they decided to go for the cheapo minimum staff/long delivery approach.
Im also convinced that they knew they were going to be out of devices soon but this was the only way to make their second deadline that said they would be available before November, maybe they can only get a limited amount of eInk devices for their devices ...

Has anyone else emailed them this week ? I did on tuesday and still did not get a reply and it was an important note about something that has to be on my invoice.
I think its one of the Pro's of buying a device from the likes of Sony : you just know that at the very least you'll get some sort of service, with Bookeen I'm not so convinced.
